I'm cursed.
If it is electric and can break , it will.
It's been like that all my life and I expect everything to die on me within a week , if it doesn't , it's a bonus :)
the large Tascam digital mixer on the first piccy got errr struck by lightening and it destroyed it, the TR909 and the Vermona DRM1 on the 4th piccy needed £hundreds worth of repairs to get them sorted.
I've decided never to buy used again after this , it tends to last longer.
Nearly done...
at long last, my power amp returns all working and stuff !
It seems that everytime I post my hifi pics in this forum something blows up shortly afterwards. I guess I'm tempting fate here by doing this.

If anyone knows of another of these CA-201 amps for sale can you tell me as I want to mono block them.

and it's been snowing here too, it doesn't usually snow around this end much so this was a shock when I woke up and discovered this :)

The hi fi should be completed around March. I've just had a Atacama Equinox rack delivered to my mothers which I'm collecting on boxing day , after that I'll possibly invest in a Squeezebox Touch and be done with it :)
Happy Xmas
Looking good! I like the snow, I was in Preston yesterday, looked like you had a fair share!

Know what you mean about electrical stuff failing on you, that's why I wear a mechanical watch;).
strange you should mention that , I bought a string of cheapish watching and they all stopped dead within a week or so.
I got myself a Tag and that's worked ever since.
magic or strange coincidence?
Well, well, I ended up with a TAG as well after years of faffing around with all sorts of tat that would usually go tits up just out of warranty, had the TAG automatic for about 8/9 years, just come back from its' first service looks brand spanking new and keeps time better than ever, some things are worth paying that bit more for:).
Cheers
What's the damage on a complete service from Tag?
I've had the battery swapped about 3 times now over the years but never had it pressure tested. (not that my bath is 200m depth anyway)
Sorted !
All amps and stands etc completed.
Decided to go with 2x pairs of QED Reference Spiral I/Cs and a 6m pair of Furutech/Furukawa PCOCC speaker cables too
Now I just need a decent source :-)
